How To Create a Successful Container | Gardening with Creekside



With the nursery’s opening day rapidly approaching I wanted to take a moment to show you how to create a successful container that will give you beautiful plants for months and months. Once you understand the basics of putting a container together it opens up a whole new world of gardening!

    I love to decorate with birdhouses in my home?!’ Love those!! What will you be selling when you open? Trees, perennials?

    So pretty, Jenny! Absolutely love all the annual salvia varieties from PW. 💚 You make me laugh…love your sweet sass and humor. Have a great opening this wknd. Still very cold and snow covered in 6a MI…

    I made a fall container for the fall and instead it turned into a spring container. Whoops.

  8. Diane Quist

    Well, one thing for sure, planting a container to last all season is generally more cost effective for those who are money conscious. That is something I appreciate 🙂

    Great tips and info. Let me guess…Laura is your "pack it in there" friend.😆. Love to see more of your pup. Love GSDs!
    I am in 4a. I have to wait til may 31st. I usually jump the gun and get a head start, hoping for an earlier frost date (occasionally happens), but mostly end up toting plants in a cold frame every night. It's worth it though!☘️🌱🌿🌼🏵️

    My sister loves you and your channel. She loves your nursery as well. I am so thankful to find someone from our area NC. I can't wait to come to your nursery. Thank you for the sneak peek of Spring!!!🦋🐞

    I live on the NC coast. I so wish your nursery was close enough for regular shopping. But we have Carolina home and garden, redfearns, friendly market, and pender pines. So thankful for those,

    Lol I think that friend she’s talking about is Laura of Garden Answer LOL…. She most definitely packs a lot of plants into one pot!! And it’s MAGNIFICENT!!!

    Jenny, I enjoyed this video so, so much! The bird houses are so adorable, I am going to have to place an order. Too bad they aren't giving you a commission.😉 I love your excitement over the honey bee, we feel the same way about them! I look forward to this spring and all the upcoming videos, thank you from MO!

    Lordy Lordy,, I just love that dk blue birdhouse at 4:06.
    [2] I really like Jerry and Daddy's construction jobs on the tables and the shelves around the posts. Such great work those boys did.
    [3] I love Lantana,, and I use to use the flowers for dying fabrics. They are great [as are many plants] for organic dying of fabrics…for quilting.
    [4] The PW soil ? That must be new. That isn't the bags of SunGrow I saw you always using in the production area, when potting up the packs of flats from the grower.
    [5] What's Jerry's phone number? I'm calling him to tell him Jenny is making a total mess all over his new concrete floor. YIKES! That New floor being junked on with pots, dirt, and plant debris. tsk tsk. Make her clean it up Jerry and ground her for a week!! [smirking]
    [6] I can't wait to see the area that you cleaned up by the front sign coming into the drive. Mostly to see how the hosta's are doing after that serious cut back.

  23. Dawn Mitchell

    Beautiful container! I hope you guys had a great first day! I hope the line that Jerry cut for trenching fiber wasn't the same day as opening day! What an even bigger headache for him! 😬

  24. Rebecca Hatch

    I've been looking for the container recipes on proven winners and couldn't find them. THANK YOU for the tip 😁

  26. Shadow

    Doesn’t lantana produce a chemical in the air to make other plants not grow properly?

  29. Staci Anne

    I love planting containers and I don’t stuff them full. I want them to fully grow and not be smashed in.

  30. Sinh Nguyen

    This one is pretty simple and offers great support since you drive it into the ground – those plants can grow to hundreds of pounds and still not take this trellis down.
